build, and implement your service portfolios.

Service Portfolio Management key
design experience features and capabilities

Portfolio managers and owners can access the many benefits of the Service Portfolio Management application,
including the following system capabilities:

Review and use sample IT service portfolio content provided via the Service Portfolio Management Taxonomy
Content Pack plugin (com.snc.spm.content). This data offers an accelerated,
time-to-value solution for designing, creating, and implementing a service portfolio.

Enable this sample content to build a service taxonomy that quickly results in the
creation of standard portfolios with optimal taxonomy.

View a list of service-related taxonomy nodes that provides examples of service
data, offerings, catalog items, and the relationships they share. Sample data also
includes links to periphery data, such as providers, vendors, contracts, SLA
definitions, cost models, and more.

Create and manage portfolios.

Add new services to a portfolio.

Create and oversee service categories and service lines.

Create and manage the overall portfolio taxonomy.

Create and manage layers of services within the taxonomy for optimal organization.

monitor and manage portfolio health and performance. Quickly view and summarize all
information related to a given portfolio and its component services.

Service owners benefit from the following system capabilities and can perform the following
tasks:

View a list of services that provides service data, offerings, catalog items, and the
relationships they share. You can also access links to periphery data, such as
providers, vendors, contracts, SLA definitions, cost models, and more.

Access the Service Owner Workspace,
when activated, to monitor and manage services.

Add new services and compare them for any redundancy.

Evaluate services for business suitability.

Incorporate appropriate data elements from service requirements, descriptions, and
relationships into a service record. For example, data from users or groups, cost
models, SLAs, vendors, and other related services.

Establish governance and management of life-cycle states and approvals.

Integrate with Change Management by
obtaining and recording approval to develop new services.

Add services to a service catalog.

Create a catalog item stub from the service offering.

Link catalog items to service offerings.

Record request fulfillment.

Build reporting for service and offering consumption based on request fulfillment.

Link offering and catalog item state models.

Include services in the platform benchmarking framework with Benchmarks.

Note: Some feature functionality requires a subscription to Service Owner Workspace.

A service portfolio presents an overall top-level view of your currently available services, possible future services, and services that existed in the past. By establishing service portfolios, you can more precisely evaluate the impact that services have on your business, and prioritize them accordingly. With Service Portfolio Management you can define and manage a single portfolio or multiple portfolios, each with its own unique taxonomy structure, owner, and market scope.

Service Portfolio Management uses a taxonomy to classify containers of services your organization provides and manages via a service portfolio. A service portfolio can contain multiple elemental layers—from general to specific—that provide the hierarchical top-to-bottom structure of your portfolio.

Configure IT services within your portfolios to add the most value to your organization. The IT services defined in your portfolios may, or may not be, specifically aligned to an application. IT services defined in your portfolios may, or may not be, represented in a request catalog.
